Under the agreement, National Health will be offering the new CARExpress cross-border healthcare program (the CARExpress international program) to people located across the United States, with particular focus on cities and regions containing a large number of Hispanics. The CARExpress international program will contain National Health's CARExpress comprehensive discount program (the CARExpress component) and a Hispanic version of a discount program similar to CARExpress' comprehensive discount program (the Hispanic component). The CARExpress component will address the needs of family members living in the United States while the Hispanic component will address the needs of family members living outside the U.S. Sales are expected to begin in the next few weeks and are expected to generate a large amount of additional members and revenue for National Health Partners.
"We are very excited to unveil our first cross-border healthcare program," stated David M. Daniels, President and Chief Executive Officer of National Health Partners. "Approximately 60% of the Hispanics living in the U.S. have family members living outside the U.S., and many of these people are not covered by any type of health insurance or discount program. The upcoming rollout of our first-ever CARExpress international program will provide a unique solution for all of the Hispanics attempting to obtain healthcare for their family in both the U.S. and abroad. For those Hispanics who do not have family outside the U.S., they will of course have the option of purchasing our traditional CARExpress comprehensive care program."
"We will be rolling out the CARExpress international program to the public in the next few weeks and expect to generate a significant number of sales during the remainder of 2009," continued Mr. Daniels. "Due to the unique manner by which we and the international healthcare company have combined our respective programs, we also expect to realize much higher gross margins on sales of the CARExpress international program. I am really excited about the launch of this unique program. The rollout of this program coupled with the pending rollout of the second stage of our internet marketing campaign will produce a tremendous amount of sales for us. We will continue to keep our shareholders informed of our accomplishments and expect to announce additional deals during the next few weeks."
